MBI looks into Guntown shooting

GUNTOWN – The Mississippi Bureau of Investigations is looking into the death of Diane Herndon Reeves, 45, of Guntown.

She was found dead around 3 p.m. Thursday by Guntown police.

Lee County Coroner Carlyn Green said Reeves died from a single gunshot wound.

“There were indications of a self-inflicted wound, but there were also some questions,” Green said of the scene.

Since there were questions surrounding the death, it was turned over to MBI. Green also said she has seen a lot of Facebook chatter about the gunshot wound being directly in Reeves’ back, which she said is untrue.
